I'm not arguing against it.

Is this going to be another time you just make something up?

At last we agree...time for a cuppa.

Keep on repeating oneself?
Brilliant mate.
Serious offence ?
Not me mate,you do read my post?
I'll repeat this,sorry, I'm firstly an Evertonion, who supports my local team,I'm not a die hard ..unless they're playing the Glasgow two.
Its only the one player, nobody else,that fans that have taken umbridge with.
If some fans feel strongly about that one player then so be it,no doubt dons fans feel the same as you.
We'll wait and see what happens if it happens.
As an aside,all those rangers fans who lost the plot about mo Johnson, bet they were dancing about when he scored the winner at parkhead.
Funny old game.

Of course they were, which would tend to support my argument.

I find it bizarre that any supporter of a club would refuse to go to see the team because they don't like a man who had been signed by the club. Imagine the deadco fans had stayed away because they objected to the signing of Johnston, or indeed any Catholic player. Thinks of all the good times they would have missed.

You're correct you did say you supported Everton. Iirc, you said your son and his mates wouldn't darken Pittodrie again. Surely they're not all Everton fans?

Anyway, I feel like I could be having this conversation for the rest of my life so if any Aberdeen supporters choose to boycott the stadium rather than sit at Pittodrie rustling their sweetie papers in support of the tram, that's their call.

Just stubborn Aberdeen fans,any excuse not to spend money.
Aye the rustling of sweetie papers, not bad.

With Roy Keane now featuring prominently in the next Celtic manager odds this is interesting. Obviously you could fill a few coach loads full of players who don't think too much of Keane from his ill fated time as a manager of nosediving Ipswich Town ten years ago and you'd imagine his vicious, bristling and abrasive put downs wouldn't go down too well in modern dressing rooms. His aggressive style perhaps very old school. So with the fact he'll possibly have 'hundreds' of former players queuing up to give their unfavourable spin here's one of them...

It will certainly be a funny season next year if he goes to Celtic. That side do need a kick up the arse but I doubt he is the right man for the job.

I'd like a younger modern manager who will get the squad fit, organised, and playing to a fixed formation. I don't want another old school manager.

Wagner or Howe?

Not a big fat Sam fan then

Reckon it'll be premier league bargain basement dweller Chris Wilder, relieved to be out of his hopeless relegation fight. Tbf Scottish football is on a different level so being bottom of the prem doesn't mean you won't be top drawer. Even Ronnie Delia won the SPFL.

Even Wagbo would surely be an improvement on his season?

Seriously though, I would like us to get someone who will have Celtic playing along the lines of the way Red Bull Salzburg played at Celtic Park..

No matter who gets the job I will support him, but I would like a young, forward thinking, manager.

I think Allardyce is a decent manager. I can think of a lot worse.

Wilder did a good job at Sheffield United, and it seems strange that a team who are rarely in the top flight would want rid of a manager because he didn't keep them in the top flight.

Having said that, I would be highly suspicious of anyone who was prepared to fork out £20 million (that's TWENTY MILLION POUNDS!!!) on Ollie McBurnie...

What about that non scoring ineffectual striker aka Liverpool superstar he forked out so much for? So much of a star he rarely made Liverpool's first team squad and now struggles to make the basement boys squad too. Record signing I think.

I had to Google the United squad and click on the players profiles to find out who you were talking about. I don't know anything about him, and had never heard of him. According to the site I was on he hasn't scored in a first team game, ever!

Yes Rhian Brewster £22.5 million worth of non scoring bench fodder, a complete and utter waste of a fortune (by Sheff United's standards). Apparently it's this transfer more than any other that convinced their owners Wilder wasn't their man to build again.

Pundits who go on as if they know it all, don’t do much in management.

Remember Gary Neville at Valencia?, I don’t have faith for Keane at Celtic should he go there..... still this isn’t La Liga we’re talking about here.

Big Sam at Celtic. It doesn't get much better than that.
